I did not enjoy my trip at all. My bus was suppose to leave at 04:30am. I got to the station at 04:10 waited for the bus and there was no bus, until another APM arrived at 05:20am and I went to the bus thinking its the one only to find that it is not and apparently my bus left at 03:30am and the driver claimed to have called me and didnt reach me so they left. So I then asked, why were they calling me at 03:30 because that is not the scheduled time for my bus to leave. Then the other driver said I must ride with him and he told the other drivers to wait for me in EL and they waited for me. The time of arrival was 07:30pm, and we only arrived at 23:00pm because the drivers would randomly stop for more than 45mins for no reason and just chat with drivers from other APM buses. I will not be using this bus ever again.
